zombieficationMETAL RAISED ON AZTEC BLOODSHED.Below The Grief by Zombiefication, released 24 May 20181. Sky Burial2. Hunger Undying3. Echoes Of Light4. Blood Falls5. Heavy Is The Crown6. From Death To Its Son7. Deliverance From The Astral SeaNew album, new sound and yet, the same band.ZOMBIEFICATION – or more specifically, its core duo of Mr Hitchcock on vocals and Mr Jacko also in MAJESTIC DOWNFALL on guitars and bass – are back and while they’re still following the same (left hand) path initially carved by their debut ‘Midnight Stench’ as far back as in 2010, they’ve once again decided to take step away from the rest of the cattle and do their own thing. Yes, the original goal was to pay homage to the early SweDeath gods, but after their second album (‘At the Caves of Eternal’), it was clear that rehashing what DISMEMBER and ENTOMBED had done over a decade ago wasn’t satisfying enough for those restless minds always on the outlook for new and more arcane ways of describing the growing darkness around us.Four years after their last album, and three since their last release (a split EP with REVEL IN FLESH), they’re finally back with ‘Below the Grief’, one beast of an album and probably, by far, their darkest and most evil-sounding yet. They’ve incorporated even more black metal influences yet have adorned it with a twisted and truly unique sense of melody. Staccato riffing has booted the few D-beat parts they had left out, resulting in a more majestic and dissonant ceremony. Still there is plenty of brutality at display here, ZOMBIEFICATION have always been about creating a suffocating and occult atmosphere. No wonder this more subtle and complex work asks you to look ‘below the grief’ to find what truly lies within our blackened hearts. And behold…
